Abstract

Olsenella scatoligenes SK9K4T is a strictly anaerobic bacterium isolated from pig feces that produces the malodorous compounds 3-methylindole (skatole) and 4-methylphenol (p-cresol). Here, we report the 2.47 Mbp draft genome sequence of SK9K4T, exploring pathways for the synthesis of skatole and p-cresol from the amino acids tryptophan and tyrosine, respectively.
